Horizon view
Horizon from Anaximenes E
66.5757° N, 31.4570° W · cell 19WFA
- Highest horizon point
- Anaximenes E: 22.2° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 4°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 80°, 20.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,075 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 7.2° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 111° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 19.8°. At 2026-10-22 19:24:19 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
